Good to know Icon.svg Good to know

  • Each studio can have one website. 
  • If you don't have a podcast or newsletter set up, your website will only show an About page.
  • Your website is not indexed by search engines. It is for direct linking only.
  • Updating the About page on your website does not update your podcast description, and vice versa. To update your podcast details, go to the Hosting tab.
  • You can change the subdomain of your Riverside website at any time by clicking the Settings. 
  • Newsletter emails are sent from an address that includes your website subdomain. If you change your subdomain, this address updates too.
  • Removing your website frees up the subdomain URL for others to use.
